It’s sunny again, the kids have been illness free for at least a week and a half, I just had my hair highlighted (which means I don’t have to wash it for at least a week) – so I am in the mood to be grateful.

Here are some of the other things I am thankful for this week:

Adult gummy vitamins – probably the only reason that I’ve managed to survive the kids’ last four or so colds brought home from day care. Now if they only made gummy prozac…

Marian Keyes – Have you discovered this brilliant Irish author yet? No?? Rush out right now and buy her latest, This Charming Man, and then go back and read everything she’s ever written. Deep themes with a sweet, witty coating.
